Slow Down Life Matters is a phrase I coined after observing the increasing rate of excessive speeding and reckless driving over the last few years. It moved me to engage in dialogue in different circles about the dangers of driving on city streets in Milwaukee. Countless accidents involving individuals running through red lights at unreasonable speeds, innocent bystanders being killed or seriously injured and an increasing number of car crashes has moved me to a place to speak up and speak out about what has become a crisis in our community.
Slow Down Life Matters is a project of Shidi, LLC. Shidi is a Wisconsin based limited liability corporation engaged in advocacy on issues that permeate from chaos, disorder and confusion. Shidi means turmoil in Swahili. It is the intention of Slow Down Life Matters to create a campaign of awareness on how we can collaboratively address the issues of reckless driving in our community. We are all impacted by the driving on our highways and city streets, whether we are motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists, passengers, etc. Failure to understand, appreciate and obey the rules of the road places us all at risk of injury.
You are invited to join the effort to create a movement for safe driving.
